To say 'I love you' one must first be able to say the 'I.'

in life •  7 years ago 

This is exactly what I needed to hear today, thank you. I have been trying to love myself for quite a while, and felt I was making a lot of progress. However, I found that when I read a quote yesterday - "...you are the source of many wonderful things..." in the first quote, my instant reaction was to tell myself that I'm not. I began comparing myself to other people I know, who are the source of MANY wonderful things and would be sorely missed if they were not around. I felt that my input into other people's lives, as wonderful as it may be, is just so minor and insignificant. This instant reaction highlights my low self esteem and a lack of self love which has obviously not improved as much as I had thought. I am going to use the tips in this post to help me on the way to total self love :) I know I will get there! Thanks again xx

Love and Forgive yourself, two issues that many struggle with. But my resolution (yes I'm early or late depending on how you look at it, lol) for the rest of my life is to fall in love with and forgive myself as I have done with others. If I can love and forgive others, why not myself, especially since I live with myself 24/7. Thank you!
